Very nice 1958 Framus Grand Star with very good neck angle(never been reset) Please see serial number on back of headstock as this was made before the inside labels began around 1960. I pictured the neck heel very nicely, and I pictured the neck angle at the headstock(Framus guitars and bass guitars had laminations at both the headstock and heel.) One can see the action is very close and the bridge has a lot of room. There is a lot of reflection in the photos since I took them outside. There are some small dings, etc., but it really is a nice guitar. This has the old "screw-on" mic cord and both volume and tone work. Pickup very nice old Framus pickup. I did research and found that dealers ask $1200 to $1900 for a nice example of the Grand Star. here is your chance to get on for half that amount It is 41 inches long, has a 24 1/2 inch scale, is 17 1/4 inches wide and 3 1/4 inches in depth(spruce top maple back and sides). No case, I will pack well, and shipping is $60 in the USA
